RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AND PRODUCT SAFETY GUIDE FOR
PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIOS
Before using this radio, read this guide which contains important operating
instructions for safe usage and rf energy awareness and control for
compliance with applicable standards and regulations.
ATTENTION!
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to
provide communications between two or more users over a distance. RF energy, which when
used improperly, can cause biological damage.
All Retevis two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend
specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important
because they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how
to control it.
Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and
how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:http://w-

Local Government Regulations
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the Local Government
Regulations requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet
occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a product label

Exposure Product Label. Also, your Retevis user manual, or separate safety booklet includes
information and operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy
compliance requirements.
